Chariots of Fire Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 For several months I've been working on this 7 ton dump that Pierce Arrow built in 1928. Still a ways to go with the body, lifting mechanism and engine. The frame will be painted black like the radiator and running boards. Doors need to be hung and painted as well.

fordh8r Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Nicely detailed parts. Are they made of brass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mackinac359 Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 Wonderful craftsmanship ! Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chariots of Fire Posted February 27, 2009 Author Share Posted February 27, 2009 (edited) Wonderful craftsmanship ! Tim The scale is 1/25. Most of the build is brass; frame, springs, front axle, hood. The cab, gas tank and radiator are plastic. Eventually it will have a dump body but I need some detail measurements and photos to do that part.
